Little Miss Sunshine Ratings & Reviews
UGO
Brian Tallerico
It doesn't exploit its characters for comedy or life lessons; it simply embraces the family members and lets them be themselves.
Rolling Stone
Peter Travers
... a scrappy human comedy that takes an honest path to laughs and is twice as funny and touching for it.
Chicago Reader
J. R. Jones
... this isn't much more than a glorified sitcom, but it deftly dramatizes our conflicting desires for individuality and an audience to applaud it.
Movie Mom
Nell Minow
Heart-stoppingly tender and outrageously hilarious.
Austin Chronicle
Toddy Burton
The film is bountiful with unconventionality and quirk, but at the end of the day, it's a traditional story that delivers in a satisfying way.
Observer
Andrew Sarris
The funniest and most gracefully written, acted and directed dysfunctional-American-family farce comedy of the year thus far.
Christian Science Monitor
Peter Rainer
Dayton and Faris satirize our win-win culture, but they don't miss a trick promoting Little Miss Sunshine for the winner's circle.
Detroit News
Tom Long
Little Miss Sunshine makes you want to gather all the kooks in your life and take a road trip.
Detroit Free Press
Terry Lawson
... a film of small and gratifying surprises.
Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Eleanor Ringel Cater
Smart and goofy, tender and laugh-out-loud funny, Little Miss Sunshine is the sleeper hit of the summer.
Houston Chronicle
Amy Biancolli
... an amusing movie, viciously well-written and brilliantly acted.
St. Louis Post-Dispatch
Joe Williams
... a road-trip movie with a big-enough heart to make the leap from specialty theaters to the suburban multiplex - where audiences can feel fortunate if they don't recognize themselves.
Dallas Morning News
Chris Vognar
Unlike so many films that force life lessons down your throat, Little Miss Sunshine weaves them into the fabric of the story.
Arizona Republic
Bill Muller
The word 'quirky' is overused, but Little Miss Sunshine deserves the tag. As with Napoleon Dynamite, the quirkiness in this film comes from honest characters, not desperate-to-be-different caricatures in such films as Garden State.
Ebert & Roeper
Richard Roeper
To the filmmakers' credit, they don't sugarcoat the creepiness. They mine it for the kind of laughter that makes you feel uncomfortable but also makes you think.
MovieFreak.com
Sara Michelle Fetters
It is a smartly acerbic satirical masterpiece, a comedy for the ages recalling Wilder, Pierson, Crowe or Chayefsky at their absolute off-color best.
Seattle Times
Moira MacDonald
Co-directors Jonathan Dayton and Valerie Faris have pulled off the essential ingredient for this kind of film: a cast that believably creates a family.
San Francisco Chronicle
Ruthe Stein
You'll be delighted, if a bit breathless from laughing, to be along for the ride.
Denver Post
Lisa Kennedy
A hard-to-resist, often riotous comedy.
RogerEbert.com
Jim Emerson
You just won't see a better acted, and better cast, movie than Little Miss Sunshine.
